The WOW Journey

Be wowed this coming November as the National Heritage Board presents War on Wheels (WOW). The media was treated to a special media preview as they came together to trace the footsteps of the Japanese invasion during World War II.

During our coverage of the media preview, we were greated by an entertaining tour guide on the chartered bus and a spectacular view. In addition, you will be exposed to a rich wealth of knowledge by visiting the sites such as the Japanese landing site in Kranji, to the War Memorial and Memories at the Old Ford Factory.

Interesting things which you can learn includes how the Japanese soldiers actually carried their bicycles as they swam across the sea from Malaysia to Singapore. What is more interesting was how the Japanese actually fooled everyone as their bicycles actually had no rubber tyres and the metal sounds creating by them when cycling actually made the soldiers believe that the Japanese came in tanks.

This definitely is an interesting way to learn about history and our heritage. Join in War on Wheels and we are certain you will be wowed!

Give them one macho clap!

In this year’s National Healthy Lifestyle Campaign, the Health Promotion Board together with its partners kick-started the 3-month long campaign with the “Lose to Win” Challenge for workplaces. The challenge aims to inspire & motivate groups of employees to lose weight the healthy way through the provision of an effective structured programme.

After just a mere 2 weeks, the intensity had increased and the participants are doing less talk and more action. In fact, TILT witnessed the intensity in their eyes where they do want to work hard and smart to achieve your fitness goals.

Throughout the session where they were treated to a series of stations treats such as modified Captain’s Ball, kick-boxing, sprinting and other stationary exercises, the participants were totally covered with perspiration. But most importantly, TILT, as the Official Photographer and Videographer for National Healthy Lifestyle Campaign 2009, were greeted constantly with their smiles and laughter.

It is a clear sight for us to see that the particpants are clearly happy to lose! We were also treated constantly to cheers such as
“Give us one Macho Clap! Ooosshhh!”
“Are you alright? OK!!!”
“Are you ok? Alright!!!”

We found out through the session about some of the results and we are very happy to share them here as well.

“Lost 2.2kg since… hope to continue and be disciplined with the exercises.”
Alice

“Able to walk up my staircase til level 6!!! non stop!!! yaaahoooo!!!!!! Thank you fitness guru for yor patience in training us…..”

With results like these, don’t you think they deserve at least one MACHO clap?

Over at TILT, we salute their efforts!
